New from Ruland: Inch-to-Metric Rigid Couplings
Ruland Manufacturing Co., Inc.
November 1, 2023
Marlborough, MA – Ruland Manufacturing now offers rigid couplings with inch-to-metric bores as a standard product, giving users a wider range of off-the-shelf couplings. This expansion is the latest addition to the company's inch-to-metric, standard coupling product line that includes seven types of motion-control couplings and universal joints. Instead of re-machining or ordering custom-made couplings, using off-the-shelf, inch-to-metric rigid couplings saves time and money.
"Ruland is well known in the flexible coupling world for having the widest range of standard bore sizes, including inch-metric options," says Bill Hewitson, President of Ruland Manufacturing. He goes on to say, "expanding our rigid coupling line to incorporate these inch-metric combinations gives engineers designing with Ruland products more flexibility to use the coupling that best fits their application, be it a rigid or flexible type."
Ruland manufactures couplings from meticulously selected North American bar stock in 2024 aluminum for lightweight and low inertia, 1215 lead-free steel for the highest torque capacity, and 303 stainless steel for corrosion resistance. Rigid couplings are made in our ISO 9001:2015 certified advanced manufacturing facility in Marlborough, MA, USA, under strict quality controls using proprietary processes. They are RoHS3, REACH, and Conflict Minerals compliant.
